President Trump said that he was delaying some tariffs on Chinese imports ahead of the Christmas season to stem their potential impact on holiday shopping, CNBC reports.
Said Trump: “We’re doing this for the Christmas season. Just in case some of the tariffs would have an impact on U.S. customers.”
He added: “But so far they’ve had virtually none. But just in case they might have an impact on people, what we’ve done is we’ve delayed it, so that they won’t be relevant to the Christmas shopping season.”
